<sub>[Who missed having a screen-ful of cheerful old guy face?]

[Anyone?]</sub>

Hello, everyone! It's been a while, hasn't it? Would you believe me if I said I lost my gear in the sofa cushions?

..._{because I did.}

ANYHOW who's ready for Christmas? Me. I am. I am ready for Christmas. Do you suppose Sandyclaws will come back? He left me a Houndour egg last year. Or someone did. I like to think I've been good this year. _{[If you don't count pranking the breeding center and possibly kidnapping people while dressed as a pirate on Halloween shhh.]} I bet this is going to be a first Christmas for some of you! Let me tell you, it's going to be wonderful!

...so long as nothing explodes. But that's a given. I think.

_{I really do hope nothing explodes.}


============[ACTION]==============

<sub>[Jack wanders the streets of Goldenrod in an overly puffy coat because adsfdsklgg cold. Under one arm are a few boxes that have already been wrapped and in his other hand is a list. He furrows his brows as he looks at the names on it and pauses every few stores to see if he can spot anything his friends might like.]

[But then he sees something else.]

[The poor ex-skeleton finds himself in the shadow of the biggest casino in town.]

[DB NO. MUST....RESIST. SHINY GAMES. AND LIGHTS. AND MUSIC.]

[He plants the list against his face and just sort of stands there on the street corner for a while.]

[A long while.]</sub>

Jack, old boy, we can beat this.

...Sandyclaws?

[The hell is that supposed to be. Envy doesn't remember anything about that from last year or 350-odd years ago either. What is with all these weird modern traditions, man.]

Having trouble?

[The Other Father approaches from behind, clad in a pumpkin coloured long coat and the usual Winter attire: anything warm that is usually a scarf. On his shoulder is a small blob of pink, peeking from behind the man's collar.]

"Sandyclaws?" [Does not compute.]

[HELLO JACK, it's been a while! This is Crow, whose right arm is still in a sling, but that doesn't seem to concern him.]

Christmas, huh? Not just yet, but I should be ready soon!

... Who the hell's "Sandyclaws", though?

whoops, [video]

[ Poor Jack getting all these first time Christmas-ers. Fang doesn't like getting caught off guard by new customs, and this certainly sounds like a big deal. ]

...So what's Christmas and why do ya think things are gonna explode?

Christmas...

[ That's the reason for all the lights and strange decor that's been going up around the city recently. She understands that much. ]

I will defend this place should this Sandyclaws return. [ What kind of fiend just abandons baby Pokemon? Clearly one that needs to be defeated. ] You need not fear.

While I don't think anyone can promise anything regarding the explosions, I do have to admit curiosity regarding this...sandy claws thing.

Oh, man, that's right! Christmas was when I got Suzuka Gongen's egg. [The Froslass in question floats over to Chie's side, humming a happy tune.] Whoever left it must've known how well she'd fit me! You think it'll happen again?

[dragonspeak]

Er. You mean "Santa Claus," right?

[Then again, it's Jack. Merlin wouldn't be surprised if he'd come up with his own name for the mysterious man associated with Christmas.]

I'm ready for Christmas. But it will be strange not being at home for Christmas.

[ Souji's out to get a head start on Christmas gifts with his list in his jacket pocket because aww yeah, Christmas the Western way!! While heading over to the Department store, he happens to notice Jack. Er... what is he doing... ]

Waiting for someone?
